Life-time Interest in History Pays off for Fulbright Winner
One doesn't have to talk to Rose Louise Coughlin long to discover her deep interest in history.
Miss Coughlin was recently awarded a Fulbright scholarship for study at the Bedford College for Women of the University of London during the 1952-53 school year.
"I've been interested in history ever since I can remember." Miss Coughlin said. "But I hadn't decided to specialize in that field until I worked here under Prof. Realey and Prof. Crawford," she continued.
Miss Coughlin received a notice April 17 directly from the State

department, informing her that she had been awarded the scholarship, which provides educational and transportation costs and a living allowance.
The letter came to the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Coughlin, in Kansas City, who called Miss Coughlin immediately and read it over the phone to her.
"They were delighted," Miss Coughlin said, "and I was doubly thrilled to have an opportunity to study British imperial history under Dame Lillian Penson."
Dame Penson is a renowned authority in the field. She helped George P. Gooch and Harold Temperley collect the British documents on the origins of World War I.
While an undergraduate, Miss Coughlin qualified for a high school teaching certificate, and she became a member of Phi Lambda Theta, honorary education sorority.
Doing graduate work in history, Miss Coughlin was initiated into Phi Alpha Theta, honorary history society. She received the master of arts degree in 1947 and taught American history here for four years.
Receiving an assistantship in the department, she worked for her doctor's degree with a minor in political science, and she became a member of Pi Sigma Alpha, honorary political science society.
Miss Coughlin is also a member of Phi Beta Kappa.
She is currently working on a dissertation, "British Foreign Policy in Persia (Iran), 1888-1914," which she hopes to complete this June for her doctorate degree.
The past summer she did research on her subject in the Library of Congress and National Archives in Washington and the New York Public library.
Miss Coughlin has not received word when she is to leave, but she does know she must be in London by Sent. 19 for orientation.
"Eventually I want to teach British history in some university in the U.S.-preferably in the Mid West," Miss Coughlin said.
